Its official - Europes first on record

Well a day for the history books! This morning saw Tropical Depression Vince make landfall on mainland Europe just to the southwest of Huelva, Spain, as a Tropical Cyclone. This has never been recorded before! The depression is now losing tropical characteristics, but it made it - and many of us didnt think we would see this happen!
